Shankweiler's Drive-in theater is the oldest operating drive-in in the United States. The outdoor theater first opened in 1934 and was the second drive-in in the country. Shankweiler’s Drive-in has one large outdoor movie screen, and while it has never closed for a season, the theater has seen several different owners during its time. The outdoor theater can accommodate less than 300 vehicles, so customers are advised to arrive extra early, as the grounds fill up quickly, particularly on the weekends. Shankweiler’s is situated in the town of Orefield, only 15 minutes away from Allentown.
